made of sugar and glass.
One loud step
and the walls fall en masse.
Sweet and clear
will never make my troubles disappear.
I live in world
made of sugar and glass.
Which is really a world
made of lies and of fear.
I tried to do some rhyming. I think it worked surprisingly well.
Okay, about the cooking blog, I promise we'll post tomorrow. We've got cookies, ice cream cake, chocolate and peanut butter rice crispies, turkey... what-ever-they're-called-s, and some other stuff.
PROMISE!!!
Well, workin' on some new things. I've got a romance/ghost story/murder mystery idea coming pretty well, and I'm still working on Assassin, so I should be able to keep pretty busy until I got back to Reborn.
Honestly, I'm a bit afraid to. Now, I know the writing in the beginning is pretty bad, but I'm cutting a whole character and moving her to be introduced in the second book, so that will take a LOT. I even have at least 2 chapters that she narrates!!
But if I must, I must.
I WILL GET THIS MANUSCRIPT PUBLISHED!!!!!
One of my teachers this year used to be an editor, so once I do the second draft, I'll give a copy to her, and some copies to a few other teachers, and let them edit for me, if they want to. Hopefully. After I have about 4 teachers AND my mom AND (hopefully) my book selling uncle (Maybe...) AND my friends AND a previously-published, soon-to-be again published author AND myself one more time, to make the 3rd draft, then I will hopefully be ready to BEGIN sending to agents.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
Okay. I'm better now.
School started again. It's school. More tomorrow, or something. I have to go to be.
G'nignt, all.
Cheerio, peeps.
P.S. I did this cool thing where all the books I have in my bookshelves that I haven't read, I put yellow sticky notes on. I have started now trying to read all the marked books. I hope to finish before the end of the school year. Maybe not, but I'll try.
That's right! Stubbornnosity always wins!
ReplyDeleteI would call it persistence, but yes, I suppose so.
ReplyDeleteNice to have you back.
